    strange range rules

    I doubt it. But if it really does happen, I know a lot of guys ready to shoot/compete there.

    strange range rules

    It has nothing to do with 1C4s. I asked. ;)

    PRI Mk 12 Mod 0 or Mod H

    In true interwebs fashion, GET BOTH. :p My favorite has always been the Mod 0, but the H is definitely more handy.

    Range Report 224 Valkyrie 90 gr SMK

    No part of the 90g SMK has changed since Sierra started pointing them a few years ago. My guess is the charge or seating depth changed, if anything was changed. I don't shoot Valk, but do send a lot of 90g SMKs/VLDs down range via 223.

    .308 20” bullet choice

    I used to push 175g SMKs at about 2600 in my 20". I'd try those or the 155g SMKs moving faster.

    Heavy 223 load help

    Try N140 and RL17 with the 80g SMKs. I have a couple loads with them. I use one for PRS, and the other for F-Class. .3-.4" with the RL17 loads (80g SMK) <-----More velocity, but groups aren't as tight. .2-.3" with the N-140 loads (80g SMK) <-----Less velocity, but super tight groups...

    16-18 inch shorty rifles

    I just started load testing with 123g SMKs after running a bunch of bullet/velocity combos through AB. Even with an 18", I'm still supersonic out to about 1000. The 142s will be within about 50 yards but will have slightly more drop (but less wind drift). It's all about what you're willing to...

    ++Bighorn TL3 Builds++

    New barrel. 18" 6.5 Creedmoor (Bartlein) Just started initial load testing and this seems to be a fast barrel. I maxed out at 2902 FPS with the 123g SMK (45.8g H4350). Decent groups across the charge range. I dub thee, Ricardo Stubbs.:LOL: The short barrel sure beats the 26" musket when...

    Range Report 95gr SMK questions

    I didnt have any issue with them in my 30" 1:7 FT-R barrel throated for 90s. I wish I could mag feed them and I'd consider them for PRS. Had them up to 2800 and printed good groups during initial testing.

    Suppressors POI shift suppressed vs unsuppressed

    I only get .1up/.2right (at 100) with my AEM5 and it's repeatable. My other cans are slightly more.

    Suppressors Any vendors sell Allen Engineering suppressors?

    Jump on the Ops Inc/Allen Engineering FB page and ask the man himself. He should be able to tell you who has inventory near you.

    strange range rules

    Manatee has turned the stomachs of a lot of great shooters. I'm a member and used to go out at least twice a month for load development/fun in addition to matches. Now I only go for competitions. The "qualification" is sort of a joke when you can show up to any of the many matches and shoot...

    Trigger pull weight?

    2 ounces. :eek: Same trigger for PRS and F-Class. When I let people shoot my rifles I insist on them dry firing first. Most don't realize they've just pulled the trigger. I have zero issues.

    Need help: 223AI mag lips spreading

    You can get 2.5XX" out of an Accurate Mag that has the front/top filed down. As mentioned, it is the same body as the 308 sized mags, it just has an insert. You could in theory file the backside down too, but the insert is clamshelled together and filing the back would in my mind compromise...

    Go to Prefits?

    I've only ever put on prefits due to a disorder I have, impatience. I've only used CBI or Shilen. The longest wait was 2 months for Shilen and that was due to a non-regular barrel they throated to my dummy rounds. The Shilen was used to get 1st HM at a regional FTR comp. The Criterion has...
